Stats Perform — Streaming Data Stats
Stats Perform: The AI Giant and Official FIFA Data Provider
Originally founded in 1981 (as STATS LLC) and strengthened after its merger with Perform Group in 2019, Stats Perform is now the powerhouse that sets the standard for accuracy in the Streaming, Data & Stats vertical. Their offering for this year revolves around total exclusivity: in January 2026, the company was selected by FIFA as its official global data and streaming distributor for betting. For an iGaming operator, Stats Perform is the sole gateway to all 104 matches of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, ensuring that every play can be turned into a settlable betting market in milliseconds.
Opta and RunningBall: The Science of Fast and Deep Data
What gives Stats Perform a differential competitive advantage is the synergy between its Opta and RunningBall brands. In 2026, RunningBall is responsible for "ultrafast" data collection for trading and immediate settlement, while Opta provides player statistics and narrative insights that power the market's most complex bet builders. Their flagship products, such as the Opta Player Stats Tracker, allow users to track granular metrics in real-time, such as completed passes or tackles won, directly within the sportsbook interface. In addition, their AI-powered Bet LiveStreams service offers broadcasts that automatically integrate visual data overlays, eliminating latency between what the fan sees and what they can bet on.
Innovation with Opta Vision and the Prediction Market
Stats Perform understands that the future of iGaming lies in predictive capability. To this end, their Opta Vision technology uses advanced computer vision to generate positional data and pressure metrics that were previously invisible. In the Streaming, Data & Stats vertical, this allows operators to offer "goal probability" or "expected performance" (xG) markets with an unassailable scientific basis. Headquartered in London and Chicago, and operating with licenses in all Tier 1 markets, Stats Perform is positioned in 2026 as the indispensable technology partner for any operator looking to capitalize on the record betting volume of the 2026 World Cup and elite global football.
